Base and Top Coat

Base coat for hybrid nail polish from PB Nails

Many people who start their adventure with nail painting, creating their own designs, do not realize how important a base coat for hybrid nail polish is. Sometimes it happens that they completely avoid using it, which results in an unstable manicure that falls off faster than intended.

An undeniable advantage of using a base coat is the fact that it helps to regenerate damaged nail plates and nourishes them. Girls who wear hybrid designs quite often struggle with weakened nail plates. In such cases, using a base coat for a manicure is essential to improve the condition of the nails.

Another advantage of using a base coat for hybrid nail polish is the visual aspect. Applying a base coat under the varnish evens out the nail plate and fills in any gaps, if any. In order for the manicure to look good, the nail plate must be properly prepared. All irregularities that may have appeared as a result of frequent interference with the plate, for example by matting it with each hybrid or gel manicure, should be masked with the base coat.

To make a hybrid or gel manicure even more durable, the nail plate should be degreased and a primer should be applied under the base, which, thanks to its consistency, perfectly bonds the nail with the styling.

A hybrid base under gel also works very well.

Which hybrid base will be best for me?

The PB Nails online store has a wide range of bases for hybrid manicure. We have two lines of base coats, these are the Power and Strong lines. The most universal bases from both lines are Strong Base and Power Base in a transparent color. Thanks to the transparent base, there is no chance that the color of the hybrid varnish will change under the influence of the pigmented base. However, if you want to emphasize the color of the varnish, it is worth considering choosing a color-matching base under it, which will help to emphasize the color of the styling. The colors of all our bases are very natural - from pink, through beige and white. You can also choose whether you want your base to be slightly glittery or rather smooth. So when asked "What hybrid base will be best for me?" we can answer that it all depends on the style that the base is to cover.

Top coat for hybrids – fix your work
Even the best base coat will be useless when doing a manicure if your work is not hardened. For this, you need a top coat for hybrid nails.

It is thanks to the top coat that your nails are hardened in the last step of the manicure.

The tasks of this layer include, among other things, protecting the color on the nails, not to mention that the top coat can help deepen the color of the applied varnish. After all, every nail stylist wants the color of her works to remain in great condition for as long as possible.

A hybrid top coat can be compared to the cherry on the cake, which will give your work a unique look. It is worth mentioning that top coats can give different finishing effects. The PB Nails brand has top coats such as a glossy, matte top coat for hybrids, with particles and a two-in-one product, i.e. a top and base coat as one product (as it is called - link).
